*If you are a CMSRU employee, please talk with Harry Mazurek to get a copy of their Flowchart, as it differs slightly. *If you are an SOM employee, please contact your ORSP office. We are working on a uniform internal routing form.
Internal Processes • Required internal paperwork • Project Description Template (UA only)- Submitted to Deanne Farrell or Rachael Swierzewski. Used in the process of finding appropriate funding opportunities. • Project Summary Form (CMSRU only) – Submitted to Harry Mazurek used to approve CMSRU projects. • Proposal Planning Form/Proposal Cover Page (all) - Filled out after the budget has been finalized. Requires departmental and institutional signatures as noted. Proposals cannot be submitted without fully signed paperwork. • Forms can be at found: http://www.rowan.edu/provost/grants/index.cfm
Project Description Template Required for requests for prospect research through University Advancement
Project Summary Form Required for all CMSRU faculty submissions
I want to submit a Letter of Inquiry Pre-proposals, preliminary applications, or letters of inquiry. Although OSP/ORSP or UA do not required signed internal paperwork for these types of submissions, please notify our offices so we can assist. Guidelines vary.
I want to submit a proposal • Only UA or OSP/ORSP may submit proposals or grant applications on behalf of the university. Proposals that are not approved prior to submission or submitted by a non authorized representative: • Can be rejected by the university if awarded with unfavorable terms or conditions. • May not include the full protection of the university under the New Jersey Tort Claims Act. • Significantly delays processing time. Even with an award notice, project work cannot begin until university approval is acquired. Exceptions: PIs may submit proposals on their own for money that will be awarded directly to them, not managed by Rowan (i.e. monetary awards, travel funds, fellowships, scholarships.)
Things to Remember • Depending on your project, one or more training modules may be required • Research Regulatory committees – IRB, IACUC, BSC • Electronic portal registrations • Allow time for signatures
FAQ Q: I’ve come from another university. How do I transfer a grant awarded to me? A: Since grants are awarded to institutions, not individuals, your former institution must relinquish rights by contacting the sponsor. OSP/ORSPwill work with both the former institution and the sponsor to ensure a smooth transfer.
Q: How can I find grant opportunities? A: Rowan has access to two funding databases: InfoEd International and the Foundation Directory Online.Contact an OSP/UA representative for instructions on signing up and accessing these sites. You can also check grants.gov for federal opportunities and http://www.nj.gov/nj/gov/njgov/grants.html for NJ funding opportunities.
